I said non-commercial places in my original post. I find malls to be soul-sucking with endless lines of clothing stores and useless stuff I have absolutely no interest in. Where is a space for community engagement in winter. Ping pong tables, sports equipment, a mini library, board games etc . The point being that recreational budgets are spent disproportionately for concerts and stuff in the summer months. Why are the winter months completely neglected. I don't want to walk outside in the dark after work. It is bleak and depressing.

Fair enough, I don’t know what town or city you’re in but the one I grew up in and the one I live in now have community centers that have most of those things plus some more. They usually require you to be a resident for a lower price or higher for non-residents. Or the YMCA.. and if the price is too much they offer financial assistance to the point where it’s almost nothing (or so I hear).
